Michael Jackson visits Kingdom Hall with his mother
Is Michael Jackson re-embracing the values of the Jehovah’s Witnesses, even though he’s publicly separated himself from the denomination in the past?
As I reported over the weekend, Michael Jackson decamped from Neverland for a few days while he awaited the jury’s decision.
Jackson and his inner circle checked into the posh Santa Ynez Inn on Friday.
Jackson is also said to have made an appearance on Sunday with his mother, Katherine Jackson, at her local church.
This would indicate that, at least for the moment, the singer is re-embracing the values of the Jehovah’s Witnesses, even though he’s publicly separated himself from the denomination in the past.
But what Jackson mostly did over the weekend was to hide from taking responsibility for the dismissal of his publicist, Raymone K. Bain.
Over the weekend, Jackson was happy to let his younger brother Randy Jackson take the flak for putting Bain’s firing on his own Web site.

Get a life nothing NOTHING is going to be destroyed for if it was prescribed to happen about 2 centuries ago by Jesus the liar and fraud, it did not. All the prophesies about the end of the world did not happen in the first century when the alleged Jesus was alive so why should it happen now?
Cheers,

@mariela dear mariela, in the meanwhile i enjoy using je-fucking-hovah’s throat as my personal crapper and puker.

And the bible predicted that people would say things like this.
hey your jehovah’s witness
i think micael jackson is “COOL”
the expression “new light” is getting tiredsome. Cant you come up with a better excuse evertime you change your minds regarding matters?
To shola, are you sure of your post?? In 1877 they say, “THE END OF THIS WORLD….is nearer than most men suppose… (73)
In 1886 they say, “The time is come for Messiah to take the dominion of the earth…. 74
In 1889 they say, “…we present profs that the setting up of the kingdom of God has already begun…and that ‘the battle of the great day of God almighty’(Rev.16:14) which will end in AD1914 with the complete overthrow of the earth’s present rulership, is already commenced. (in their 1915 edition of this same book they changed “AD1914” to “AD1915”)
On July 15, 1894, they say “We see no reason for changing the figures—nor could we change them if we would. They are, we believe, God’s dates not ours. But bear in mind that the end of 1914 is not the date for the beginning, but for the end of the time of trouble” (p.1677 of reprints, see note 72)
In 1904 they said, “The stress of the great time of trouble will be on us soon, somewhere between 1910 and 1912 culminating with the end of the ‘times of the Gentiles,’76
On may 1, 1914, they said, “There is absolutely no ground for bible students to question that the consummation of this gospel age is now even at the door….The great crisis… that will consume the ecclesiastical heavens and the social earth, is very near” 77
But the year 1914 ended without a single one of these predictions coming true. 78
In pastor Russell’s sermons (1917,p.676) Charles Taze Russell, founder and first president of the jw’s, said of world war I, “The present great war in Europe is the beginning of the Armageddon of the Scriptures.” After Russell’s death, Judge Rutherford continued the tradition of false prophecies given in the name and authority of God. He believed and stated that 1925 would mark the year of Christ’s Kingdom. He was wrong. 79 — In the WT magazine, September 1, 1922, we find, “The date 1925 is even more distinctively indicated by the scriptures because it is fixed by the law of God to Israel…[One can see how] even before 1925 the great crisis will be reached and probably passé” (p.262)
The WT magazine of April 1, 1923, stated, “Our thought is that 1925 is definitely settled by the scriptures” (p.106). But these and all other predictions proved false.
After utterly falling in the 1914 and 1925 predictions and finding that many people were leaving the Society, the leaders of the WT became more cautious in setting dates. Nevertheless, they continued to hold out the promise of the eminency of Armageddon and the subsequent millennial kingdom. From 1930 to 1939 there were numerous declarations made about the future. For example:
In 1930 they said, “The great climax is at hand” 80
In 1931 they said, “Armageddon is at hand….”81
In 1933 they said, “The incontrovertible proof that the time for delivery is at hand.” 82
In 1933 they said, “That [Jehovah] has now opened these prophecies to the understanding of His anointed is evidence that the time of the battle is near; hence the prophecy is of profound interest to the anointed” 83
In 1939 they said, “The battle of the great day of God Almighty is very near.” 84
In fact from May 1940 to April 15, 1943, just three short years, the society made at least 44 predictions of the imminence of Armageddon. 85 Here are a few example from tis period and later:
In September 1940 they said, “The kingdom is here, the king is enthroned. Armageddon is just ahead…The great climax has been reached” (the messenger, September 1940 p.6)
In the WT, September 15, 1941, they said, “THE FINAL END IS VERY NEAR” (p.276). “The remaining months before Armageddon…) (p.288)
On January 15, 1942, they said, “The time is at hand for jesus Christ to take possession of all things” (p.28)
On may 1, 1942, they said, “Now, with Armageddon immediately before us…(p.139)
On may 1, 1943, they said, “The final end of all things….is at hand” (p.139)
On September 1, 1944, they said, “Armageddon is near at hand” (p.264)
In 1946, “The disaster of Armageddon …is at the door.” 86
In 1950 they said, The March is now on! To the field of Armageddon ofr the ‘war of the great day of God the Almighty’” 87
In 1953 they said, “Armageddon is so near at hand it will strike the generation now living.” 88
In 1955 they said, “It is becoming clear that the war of Armageddon is near its breaking out point.” 89
In 1958 they said, “When will Armageddon be fought?…. It will be very soon.” 90
These are just a few of the many false prophecies the WT has made over the years. Is there any wonder the jw’s leaders in their Awake! Magazine, October 8, 1968, p. 23, were forced to admit that “certain person” had previously falsely predicted the end of the world? IN this article jw’s leaders asked why these false prophecies were given. Every jw should take note of what they say. They said it was because they lacked God’s guidance.
In this article in Awake! magazine (October 8, 1968, p.23) the WT leadership admitted:
True, there have been those in times past who predicted an “end to the world” even announcing a specific date. The “end” did not come. They were guilty of false prophesying. Why? What was missing?…Missing from such people were God’s truths and the evidence that He was guiding and using them. But what about today? Today we have the evidence required, all of it, and it is overwhelming!
Notice that the WT leaders have condemned their predecessors their predecessors as false prophets. They admit that all through the years they were speaking in the name and authority of god, they were really lying and giving false prophecies.
If we accept that they gave false prophecies, god in Deut 18:20-22 says in the new world translation: However, the prophet who presumes to speak in my name a word that I have not commanded him to speak or who speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet must die. And in case you should syay in your heart: “how shall we know the word that Jehovah has not spoken?” When the prophet speaks in the name of Jehovah and the word does not occur or come true, that is the word that Jehovah did not speak. With presumptuousness the prophet spoke it. You must not get frightened at him.
But in spite of their tragic record of predictions that did not come to pass. They disregarded the word of god in Deut 18, and as the above quote from Awake! Magazine shows, thy confidently asked the people to believe that now they would speak for God ion predicting the future. They now began to strongly imply it would be the year 1975 in which Armageddon would occur 91
In 1973 they said, “the ‘great tribulation’ is very near” 92
In 1973 they said, “according to the bible’s time-table, the beginning of the seventh millennium of mankind’s existence on earth in near at hand, within this generation” 93
In the kingdom ministry, May 1974, the world’s end was said to be “so very near” that Jehovah’s witnesses were commended who sold “their homes and property” to devote themselves to fulltime service in “the short time remaining before the wicked world’s end” (p.3)
In 1975 they say, “the fulfillment…is immediately ahead of us” 94
In 1975 they say, “very short must be the time that remains…” 95
Many jw’s living today can remember when the year 1975 came and went, bringing great discouragement to the faithful and providing further embarrassment to the WT society.
But the charade still continued. From 1976-1981 the society repeatedly said Armageddon was “very near” “at hand” and so on. And from 1981 to the present the society still claims that the world is near its end.
It is said that the jw’s believed that the WT authoritative statements are true and genuinely reflect god’s guidance. But if the society has been indisputably wrong in every period it has prophesied, how can modern jw’s trust it?????? Would any employer rehire a thief for the tenth time after nine offenses??? The answer is no! Thousands of jw’s have left the WT after having lived through the high expectations and heartbreaking disappointments of these false prophesies.
Thousands more have left who investigated these false prophesies in the WT literature.
Still, the WT society claims that jw’s “unswerving action to such inspired prophecy has held them true th the right course till now.” 96 After reading its false prophesies through the years and its own admission that it lied, what do you think?
The society still claims of Armageddon, “Jehovah has his own fixed date for its arrival” 97. But the WT has missed that date every time it has predicted it.
I kept telling my 5 year old son that if he doesn’t behave and do good in school “Santa clause) will not bring him any more gifts, well it worked for a while, but unfortunately is no longer working?
Now the question is, when will you guys come to reality?????
If you have any doubts just let me know and I will point were the quotes were taking from
Example:
(82- J.F. Rutherford, Preparation, op. cit,. p.11)
(’94′ Man’s salvation out of the world distress at hand, op. cit,. p.31)
(’95′ Ibid.,p.349)
Let me guess, you participate in the Special Olympics?
I actually love your optimism on your confusing question.Jehovah’s withnesses did not preach that this system of things will be destroyed in 1914,1925,1975. I believed sincerely that you were told that the gentiles time was ended in 1914 or would come to an end in 1914.I would like to give you meaning to this gentiles time that was ended in 1914.In 1914 was the time when satan was hull down from heaven to earth and that is why the bible alc tell us that satan had been hull down to the earth because he has a short period of time, so because of this he would do all his best to decieve many from following divine standard.This period of 1914 happens to be the time when the world war started which is in conformity with the period Jehovah’s withnesses told .i will like to receive your mail in my box for more question you may like to ask.
thanks
i agreed with this commentator, because mj is not a baby.He must have seen that that this system of things is not beneficial ,because despite his convincing song the world still get more worsen.he might convince in that it is only Jehovah that can bring peace to this world and he can only derive the truth from jehovah’s withnesses.All i will say is that, may Jehovah put more light in this issue
thanks
